A cache of secret Nazi documents was recently found in the basement of Argentina's Supreme Court during the relocation of court archives. The documents, which include propaganda meant to promote Adolf Hitler's ideology, were shipped from the German embassy in Tokyo in 1941. While Argentinian customs had concerns about the packagesâ contents, five boxes were opened by officials, revealing vast amounts of Nazi materials. The Supreme Court has ordered an inventory of the documents to uncover their historical significance, including possible connections to the Holocaust and global Nazi financial operations.
Judicial officials relocating court archives accidentally discovered a cache of secret Nazi documents, highlighting historical efforts to propagate Hitler's ideology in Argentina during World War II.
In 1941, 83 packages from the German embassy arrived in Argentina on the Japanese steamer Nan-a-Maru, containing what were deemed personal effects of embassy members.
The Argentine Supreme Court is now examining Nazi propaganda and documents which illustrate attempts to influence Argentina's neutrality during World War II and trace the global Nazi money trail.
The contents of the boxes, which were unopened for decades, include thousands of notebooks from the National Socialist German Workers' Party Organization, depicting their extensive propaganda efforts.
